Wild Downtown Las Vegas Elopement \\ Afton + Matt

Feb 10, 2021

Downtown Vegas Elopement at Binions

Afton and Matt's wild Vegas Elopement began right after sunset on the top of the Binion's parking garage in #DowntownVegas. Right off #FremontStreet, this rooftop garage has some of the best views of Vegas, as well as some of the coolest and biggest neon signs around, I mean just check out that picture below!

If you are looking at eloping in Las Vegas, there are really two ways to do it. Some go for the chapel or downtown Vegas look, with colorful graffiti walls and #neonlights, while others really vibe with the desert on the outskirts of town for that more secluded boho look. No matter your preferences, we are the Vegas elopement photographers for you! We know some great spots all over town, and know how to capture your elopement pictures at ANY time of the day. While most of our sessions are at sunrise or sunset, we are great with flash and other light modifiers to be able to capture amazing pictures in the middle of the day with harsh lighting or even at night once the sun has gone all the way down! If you love this look below, you might also love the Neon Boneyard, which is probably one of the coolest places EVER! I've been a huge fan of this place forever, I even did my highschool senior pictures there almost a decade ago because I love it so much! But if you are a little more wild, the top of one of the coolest parking garages in the world might just be the place for you to tie the knot or take some killer photos!

Elopement Photos at the Plaza, Downtown Las Vegas

We shot their #elopement photography on both digital and film, and also were the videographers for their wild night! Being #wedding and elopement photographers and #videographers in Las Vegas means that we get to capture some wild and beautiful weddings, but this one was a first for us! Our first nighttime elopement on top of a parking garage, but we sure hope it won't be our last! It was so much fun!! After the ceremony, we headed down to the Plaza hotel in downtown Vegas to get some awesome pictures under the lights! If there is one thing the #Plaza is known for in Vegas, it's the lights. There must be at least a million bulbs, and they are just spectacular. This has to be one of the coolest spots in all of Vegas, especially once the sun goes down and the lights turn on, wow oh wow!!!

Rock & Roll Las Vegas Elopement // Downtown + Desert

Feb 10, 2021

We started our day picking up these two cuties at the Little White Chapel downtown before heading to red rock to take their wedding pics. You know we had to get a few shots in the tunnel of love with the pink convertible!!

After that we headed up to just outside of the city to a beautiful desert spot to get these two some beautiful images of their day. Brittany's silver sparkly dress and shoes were absolutely perfect for the Vegas elopement and contrasted amazingly with the desert backdrop. When I first saw her I almost died because she looked so rock and roll I fell in love instantly. Nevertheless Bryen and I had so much fun with these two who came all the way from Oklahoma with their family (and adorable baby girl) to elope in Vegas! Their wedding pictures and video are absolute Vegas goals!

You know we had to get the walking across the street shot! This is my absolute favorite shot to get because it's the reason I became a wedding photographer in the first place! Long story short, I started following this freaking amazing photographer @annieruby on instagram, she is absolute goals. And while I was into photography for landscapes and travel stuff, I had never thought about doing portraits and turning my hobby into a business. Well she kills the game when it comes to the bride and groom crossing the road, and ever since I saw that shot, I just wanted to capture it myself! And I always try to add it into my sessions because there is nothing cooler than a bride in her gorgeous gown crossing the road in the middle of somewhere awesome (at least there isn't to me anyways)!

Last but not least we headed down to the Las Vegas sign, waited in a ridiculously long line, but got all the shots they wanted to document their trip to sin city. Despite all the photobombers, these two brought the party and had a celebratory champagne toast and cigar in front of the sign with their family to keep the party going! I loved every single moment of this day and have so much love in my heart for the Vegas elopement, because it's so iconic and personal. My parents eloped in Vegas (I mean they lived there) but still it's super special to me, and love to help contribute to couples special day in the big city!

XOXO,

HAYWAY

Secret Red Rock Canyon Elopement | Rob + Marlies

Feb 10, 2021

It's no secret that Red Rock Canyon here in Las Vegas is one of my favorite locations in Las Vegas. The red rocks, joshua trees, and the beautiful golden desert light make it pure magic. So when Rob and Marlies asked me and Bryen to do their elopement photo and video in Red Rock, it was an obvious and easy yes!
